CHICAGO (AP) — Aidan Laughery rushed for three touchdowns and No. 22 Illinois topped Northwestern 38-28 on Saturday to reach nine victories for the first time since its 2007 Rose Bowl season. Pat Bryant dashed in to score off Luke Altmyer’s 43-yard pass early in the third quarter as Illinois (9-3, 6-3 Big Ten) struck for touchdowns just over 4 minutes apart early in the third quarter to open a 28-10 lead in what had been a tight game. Bryant's 10th receiving touchdown tied a school record. Javascript is required for you to be able to read premium content. Please enable it in your browser settings.

Try the more than $115 million that will be spread across the conferences at the end of the season, all depending on who gets in and which teams go the farthest. According to the College Football Playoff website , the 12 teams simply making the bracket earn their conferences $4 million each. Another $4 million goes to conferences whose teams get into the quarterfinals. Then, there's $6 million more for teams that make the semifinals and another $6 million for those who play for the title. Most of this bonanza comes courtesy of ESPN, which is forking over $1.3 billion a year to televise the new postseason. A lot of that money is already earmarked — more goes to the Big Ten and Southeastern Conference than the Big 12 or Atlantic Coast — but a lot is up for grabs in the 11 games that will play out between the opening round on Dec. 20 and the final on Jan. 20. In all, the teams that make the title game will bring $20 million to their conferences, all of which distribute that money, along with billions in TV revenue and other sources, in different ways. In fiscal 2022-23, the Big Ten, for instance, reported revenue of nearly $880 million and distributed about $60.5 million to most of its members. The massive stakes might help explain the unabashed lobbying coming from some corners of the football world, as the tension grows in advance of Sunday's final rankings, which will set the bracket. Earlier this week, Big 12 commissioner Brett Yormark lit into the selection committee, which doesn't have a single team higher than 15 in the rankings. That does two things: It positions the Big 12 as a one-bid league, and also threatens to makes its champion — either Arizona State or Iowa State — the fifth-best among conference titlists that get automatic bids. Only the top four of those get byes, which could cost the Big 12 a spot in the quarterfinals — or $4 million. “The committee continues to show time and time again that they are paying attention to logos versus resumes,” Yormark said this week, while slamming the idea of teams with two losses in his conference being ranked worse than teams with three in the SEC. The ACC is also staring at a one-bid season with only No. 8 SMU inside the cut line of this week's projected bracket. Miami's loss last week all but bumped the Hurricanes out of the playoffs, a snub that ACC commissioner Jim Phillips said left him “incredibly shocked and disappointed." “As we look ahead to the final rankings, we hope the committee will reconsider and put a deserving Miami in the field," Phillips said in a statement. The lobbying and bickering filters down to the campuses that feel the impact. And, of course, to social media. One of the most entertaining episodes came earlier this week when athletic directors at Iowa State and SMU went back and forth about whose team was more deserving. There are a few stray millions that the selection committee cannot really influence, including a $3 million payment to conferences that make the playoff. In a reminder that all these kids are going to school, after all, the conferences get $300,000 per football team that meets academic requirements to participate in the postseason.

President-elect Donald Trump is reportedly set to nominate Stephen Feinberg, a billionaire defense industry investor and major Trump megadonor—despite his lack of military or organizational leadership experience—for the second-highest position at the U.S. Department of Defense, Deputy Defense Secretary. The Washington Post first broke the news on Tuesday afternoon, which comes as Trump’s pick for U.S. Secretary of Defense, Fox News weekend host Pete Hegseth, faces mounting criticism and negative press amid numerous scandals including alleged sexual assault, “aggressive drunkenness,” and financial mismanagement of veterans’ organizations. Trump has already offered the job to Feinberg, according to the Post, calling it “a decision that could elevate a longtime political supporter with investments in defense companies that maintain lucrative Pentagon contracts.” “Feinberg is the co-CEO of Cerberus Capital Management, which has invested in hypersonic missiles and which previously owned the private military contractor DynCorp,” the Post reports. “DynCorp was acquired by another defense firm, Amentum, in 2020. During the first Trump administration, Feinberg led the President’s Intelligence Advisory Board, which provides the U.S. leader advice on intelligence assessments and estimates and counterintelligence matters.” ALSO READ: Will Trump back the FBI’s battle against domestic extremists? He won’t say. “The deputy defense secretary typically manages day-to-day operations of the massive bureaucracy with a combined workforce of more than 3 million service members and civilian employees,” the Post explained. The current Deputy Defense Secretary is Kathleen Hicks. She holds a master’s in national security studies, and her PhD in political science from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Hicks started her career at the Pentagon as a civil servant in 1993. For three years she was a senior fellow at the Center for Strategic and International Studies (CSIS) before returning to the Pentagon under President Barack Obama in 2009. She has served as Deputy Undersecretary of Defense for strategy, plans, and forces, and Principal Deputy Under Secretary of Defense for policy. In 2020, President-elect Joe Biden chose Hicks to lead “the 23-person agency review team’s assessment of defense and national-security related issues,” Defense Daily reported. “These teams are composed of highly experienced and talented professionals with deep backgrounds in crucial policy areas across the federal government. The teams have been crafted to ensure they not only reflect the values and priorities of the incoming administration, but reflect the diversity of perspectives crucial for addressing America’s most urgent and complex challenges,” the Biden transition team said in a statement, according to Defense Daily. Feinberg has a bachelors’ from Princeton. In 2021, The New York Times reported that the four Saudis “who participated in the 2018 killing of the Washington Post journalist Jamal Khashoggi received paramilitary training in the United States the previous year under a contract approved by the State Department, according to documents and people familiar with the arrangement.” “The training was provided by the Arkansas-based security company Tier 1 Group, which is owned by the private equity firm Cerberus Capital Management,” the Times reported. In July of 2017, a New York Times report noted Feinberg’s ties to the now far-right podcaster and political strategist Steve Bannon, and Trump son-in-law Jared Kushner. “Erik D. Prince, a founder of the private security firm Blackwater Worldwide , and Stephen A. Feinberg, a billionaire financier who owns the giant military contractor DynCorp International, have developed proposals to rely on contractors instead of American troops in Afghanistan at the behest of Stephen K. Bannon, Mr. Trump’s chief strategist, and Jared Kushner, his senior adviser and son-in-law, according to people briefed on the conversations.” A 2012 Rolling Stone profile of then-presidential candidate Mitt Romney, included this statement from Feinberg. “’We try to hide religiously,’ explained Steven [sic] Feinberg, the CEO of a takeover firm called Cerberus Capital Management that recently drove one of its targets into bankruptcy after saddling it with $2.3 billion in debt. ‘If anyone at Cerberus has his picture in the paper and a picture of his apartment, we will do more than fire that person,’ Feinberg told shareholders in 2007. ‘We will kill him. The jail sentence will be worth it.’ ”T he artist Jasleen Kaur was born in Glasgow in 1986. She studied at Glasgow School of Art and later at the Royal College, and had her first solo show, Be Like Teflon , in London in 2021. She works mainly with installations, using everyday objects to explore identity, cultural memory and political belonging. Earlier this month, Kaur won the Turner prize for her 2023 exhibition Alter Altar at the Tramway in Glasgow , which memorably featured a replica of her dad’s red Ford Escort covered in an outsized doily. A group show of this year’s shortlisted artists’ work is at Tate Britain until 16 February . Kaur lives and works in London. Gaza Biennale I heard about this on the evening of the Turner prize ceremony: some of the folk protesting outside the Tate [calling for institutional divestment from ties to Israel and a permanent ceasefire in Gaza] have also been organising with the artists in Gaza who are putting on their own biennale. I don’t know what to say about the fact that, amid total destruction, artists in Gaza are putting on a biennale . I could say that it shows something about the power of art. But it also feels like a call to the global art community to listen. It’s a point of connection, it’s an attempt at connection or conversation. Kneecap I find that the energy of [the Northern Irish hip-hop trio] Kneecap feels really vital – they are totally honest in speaking truth to power. The film is the heavily fictionalised origin story of the band, who rap in the Irish language. A couple of things stood out to me. One was about a relationship to music that is anti-imperial, something I’m thinking about in my own life and practice. The film also tells how each of us has a political voice and the need to exercise it. These working-class rappers have a place to push things forward. Island of Us: Conversations About Justice With Children by Jack Young This is a resource born out of a beautiful exhibition by Rory Pilgrim at Chisenhale gallery earlier this year featuring work by people who are incarcerated. This book, developed from workshops with local primary school-age children, contains conversations around justice and freedom. It reminded me of conversations I have with my own kids. There are questions like: “If somebody who’s really poor steals an apple, what should happen?” The answers are really thoughtful. I just think young people are incredible. I learned a lot from it. F*Choir Where to begin with the force that is F*Choir? They are a queer-led choir based in London. I saw them perform with my kids at the Walthamstow Trades Hall two years ago. I’ve also marched with them during Palestine protests and been to open singing sessions with them. I’m just so in awe at the way that they practise singing in community with such dedication. They’ve got this session called Singing to Stay Alive. You can book to sing with them, and you really feel that singing collectively is part of living. It’s a life force. We Are Made of Diamond Stuff by Isabel Waidner As someone who is heavily dyslexic, I find reading really hard. Recently a friend said: “Put down your theory books and pick up some fiction.” So I went to a bookshop and deliberately chose books that were thin, with a font that I could cope with. I wanted to check out Isabel Waidner, who writes really thin fiction, and they’ve got me hooked. This novel takes place on the Isle of Wight. There are protests and climate migrants and right-wing LGBTQ+ factions. Their writing is so visual, it’s like a film, and each sentence is like something I’ve never read before. June Jordan The distilled language of poets such as June Jordan is bringing so much solace at a time when language is kind of failing. I’ve decided that Jordan is one of my ancestors. Her poetry and her political life were not separate and she had the ability to get to the heart of things with so few words. Her [1982] poem Apologies to All the People in Lebanon is heartbreaking. You read it and think, it must have been written now, surely. Caoimhín Ó Raghallaigh We were filming up in Glasgow for the Turner prize and one of the crew who were driving us around had an album by Caoimhín Ó Raghallaigh playing, and his music has been carrying me through the past months. The fiddle really gets to my heart. I feel like it’s part of my ancestry, it moves me in the way that an Indian stringed instrument might. This album [ Caoimhín Ó Raghallaigh & Thomas Bartlett ] is really comforting but it’s also a lament, and there are times when the fiddle is barely even playing, it’s just a scratch of a string.CHICAGO (AP) — Aidan Laughery rushed for three touchdowns and No. 22 Illinois topped Northwestern 38-28 on Saturday to reach nine victories for the first time since its 2007 Rose Bowl season. Pat Bryant dashed in to score off Luke Altmyer’s 43-yard pass early in the third quarter as Illinois (9-3, 6-3 Big Ten) struck for touchdowns just over 4 minutes apart early in the third quarter to open a 28-10 lead in what had been a tight game. Bryant's 10th receiving touchdown tied a school record. Altmyer, who threw for 170 yards, had a TD himself on a keeper from the 1-yard line early in the second quarter. David Olano added a field goal in the fourth to cap Illinois' scoring. Laughery, a sophomore running back, rushed for a career-best 172 yards and topped 100 for the first time. He entered with only one TD this season and two for his career. He had a career-long 64-yard run for a score early in the second half. Coach Bret Bielema said he wasn't surprised by Laughery's explosive performance as the Gibson City, Illinois product rounded back into form after being hampered by a hamstring injury earlier this season. “I thought today would be a day that could happen,” Bielema said. “Today some of those turned into big home run hits we've kind of been waiting on all year.” Laughery said he's been prepping for this kind of game, when he carried the ball 12 times for an average of 14.3 yards. “Finally, the opportunity was there,” said Laughery, who got the game ball. “You know you gotta' hit one and it came together today.” He credited the Illini offensive line with opening space for his breakout performance. “Those guys were covering them (Northwestern's defense) all day long,” Laughery said. “It was awesome running behind the looks we were getting” Northwestern’s Devin Turner intercepted Altmyer twice, including for a 13-yard touchdown return late in the first quarter. Thomas Gordon caught Jack Lausch's 15-yard TD pass with a minute left, then the Wildcats added a two-point conversion to complete the scoring. Northwestern (4-8, 2-7 Big Ten) didn’t pack it in as hosted its second game this season at Wrigley Field, this time on a breezy sunny day with game-time temperature of 20 degrees. It looked like the Illini might run away after Bryant’s 10th receiving touchdown 4:52 into the third. He entered tied for the Big Ten lead. But Luke Akers kicked his second field goal of the game, a 34-yarder, with 5:35 left in the third quarter to cut it to 28-13. Lausch led the Wildcats on their next possession and finished it with an 11-yard touchdown toss to A.J. Henning to narrow the Illini lead to 28-20. Then Mac Resetich intercepted Lausch’s pass 50 seconds into the fourth quarter. Laughery powered up the middle for 31 yards and his third TD about two minutes later to quell the Wildcats' momentum. Northwestern dominated in possession time — 34:32 to 25:28 —and plays — 90 to 53. The margin was even more pronounced in the first half, but the Wildcats settled for a 13-yard touchdown return on Turner’s second pick of the game with 2:14 left in the first quarter and Akers’ 21-yard field goal that opened the scoring 6:29 in. Illinois led 14-10 at the half on Laughery’s 30-yard TD run midway through the first quarter and Altmyer’s keeper 1:39 into the second. Akers missed wide to the right on a 44-yard attempt as time ran out in the half. Both teams’ leading pass receivers were injured. Northwestern’s Bryce Kirtz was knocked out of the game in the first quarter with a lower-body injury after two receptions that upped his total yards to 598. Illinois’ Bryant went to the locker room with about 5 minutes left in the first half after Turner collided with him as he plucked his second interception. Bryant returned, however, for the second half. Illinois: Is in line for a prestigious bowl game appearance and a chance to tie the school record of 10 wins, most recently set during their 2001 Sugar Bowl season. “We wanted to put ourselves in a good position on this day to get to nine wins and see where it can go,” Bielema said. “Just a fun day overall. I don't know what the future holds. It think we're a team that can play with anybody in the country.” Northwestern: Finished its second season under coach David Braun at 4-8 overall and 2-7 in the Big Ten. The Wildcats dropped their final three and five of the last six. Illinois is headed to a bowl game. Northwestern opens its 2025 season at Tulane on Aug. 30.

Coming off a string of election losses in recent years, members of the state and local Democratic Party have a year to right the ship. Recently, Mike Schmuhl announced that he would not seek another term as chairman of the state party. When he made the announcement, Schmuhl noted the party retained 30 seats in the Indiana House. But the reality is that the Republican Party maintained super-majorities in both chambers of the Indiana General Assembly and continued their domination of statewide offices. A Democrat has not occupied the governor’s office since Joe Kernan in 2005. Republicans have held the office for two decades, and some of those statewide races were not competitive. Locally, the Democratic Party has not won a countywide office since Fred Reese captured a district seat on the county council in 2018. On a positive note, at both the state and local level, with no elections taking place in 2025, the respective party organizations can start rebuilding from the precinct level to the top of the local and state tickets. Granted, a lot of the problems for Democrats have arguably begun with the fact that Donald Trump has been at the top of the GOP ticket in the past three presidential elections. Although Trump might not have always been popular with mainstay Republicans, his populist message has resonated with voters in Indiana. Tip O’Neill, the former Democratic Majority Leader in the U.S. House, famously said, “All politics is local.” There is a lot of truth to the statement as Republicans, both nationally and in Indiana, took advantage of concerns about the economy to win back the presidency and retain control in Indiana. The former base of the Democratic Party — the working middle class and those voters with a more moderate leaning — have left the party in recent years. Just a few decades ago in Madison County, the Democratic Party benefited from the strong membership of the United Auto Workers. But with the passing of General Motors, those voters have looked elsewhere and, apparently, found hope with the Republican Party. The only remaining Democratic areas in the county are in Anderson and Elwood. At the state level, Democratic strongholds remain in larger cities like Indianapolis, South Bend and Michigan City. Although there are factions within the local Republican Party, that splintering has not resulted in local residents turning to the Democrats. It will be interesting to see who takes over the reins of the state Democratic Party and what steps are taken, both statewide and in Madison County, to attract younger, more moderate voters.Ann Arbor in the 1970s: Commie High, Briarwood Mall, Hash Bash and more
EXCLUSIVE: NBCU Launch has set its 2024-26 class for the TV Directors Program, now in its fifteenth year. Those selected and the shows they are attached to are Parisa Barani ( Law & Order) , Winter Dunn ( The Irrational ), Nina Kramer ( St. Denis Medical ), and Liz Sargent ( Chicago Med ). Founded in 2009, NBCU’s scripted directing program (now called the NBCU Launch TV Directors Program) gives experienced directors with distinct points of view their break into episodic television. The program supports the company’s goal of producing authentic stories with talent whose lived experiences inform their unique creative visions. It’s the first scripted directing initiative in the TV industry to guarantee that participants will helm at least one episode by the program’s culmination. Directors shadow on two episodes of an NBCU scripted series before sitting in the director’s chair themselves. This year’s class will benefit from new learning and development opportunities to prepare the program directors to helm their first episode of scripted TV. Each class member has been paired with an alumnus currently working as a TV director to be their mentor. SJ Main Muñoz ( Fear the Walking Dead ), Brenna Malloy ( On Call ), Kim Nguyen ( Survival of the Thickest ), and Dinh Thai ( Wu-Tang: An American Saga ) will help guide the new program directors through the process of helming their episodes. Barani, Dunn, Kramer, and Sargent participated in a recent six-day intensive workshop held across two weekends with TV directors Mary Lou Belli and Bethany Rooney. During their time together, Belli and Rooney led participants through exercises on practical sets aimed at honing their creative visions, technical craft, and communication and interpersonal skills. The program is open to experienced directors of all backgrounds who must have directing experience in their respective fields, including feature-length films, short films, music videos, commercials, digital content and unscripted programming. Candidates can have no more than one scripted television directing credit. All eligibility requirements can be found on the NBCU Launch website. Applications will open next in the second half of 2025. Class members were selected following a lengthy selection process where showrunners and executive producers from the participating shows chose the candidate that best suited the creative direction of their show.
